Just so long as the pitcher Of a base
ball club gets $4,000 for six months
work, and preacher scant 5000 for a
years service, just so long will there
be good pitching and poor preaching.
Fayetteville Observer.
Won't this logic work just as well
if transposed. Just so long as there
is poor preaching (and there is no dis
guising the fact that we have lots OF
it in this country, and good pitching,
salaries will be paid accordingly. Ii
Il base ball pitcher earns $4,000 a yea
he is just as clearly entitled to it rs &
preacher is entitled to the salary he
earns. No doubt many preachers dc
not receive as large salaries as they
should, but the fact that base bal
players are we'll paid is not response
bic for any deficiencies in preachers
salaries.

The editorial columns Of the

that Col. Colyar is airing his genius
through that medium, and the crisp

The American, under its new man
agement is leaning much more favor
ably to prohibition. There is a strong
likelihood that a consolidation be.

PARsON HENDERSON of the Muir
freesboro Free Press uses up a good
deal of his last weeks space in trying
to ward off the blows sent down up
on him by various papers on account
of his avowed antagonism to the pro-
hibition amendment. Better, come
over on the right side, Brother Hen
derson; christianity and anti-prohi-
bition are incompatible, and the pc.
Sition of the anti-prohibitionist is alb
-Olutely indefensible.

A MAN can not remain away from
the polls on the Goth Of next Septem-
Der and lay claim to position of
neutrality on the prohibition ques-
ton. The prohibition people have
got to poll a certain number of votes
in order to carry the amendment, and
it makes no difference whether the
nti-prohibitionists vote or not. All
who do not vote will count against
the amendment just the same as if
they should vote against it. THERE'S
absolutely no neutral ground on this
question, and the man who thinks he
can court favor with the prohibition
people by merely refusing to vote
against the amendment is mistaken.
If you haven't got back bone and
courage enough to walk manfully up
to the polls and vote for the proposed
amendment, you aid just so much in
defeating the measure as the man
who does vote against it.

THE exact number of votes neces-
.sary to carry prohibition is. some
where between one bundled and
twenty thousand and one hun
bred and thirty thousand, but
in order that there may be
no quibbling about it, let the vote for
the proposed amendment be one hun
dred and fifty thousand at least.
There arefully two hundred thousand
voters in the State who would love to
see this measure carry. Then let ev-
cry one of them be brave and true
enough to come to the polls and say
so with his ballot.
